How to Transcribe and Translate Your Podcast for Greater Reach

Transcription and translation are important processes when it comes to content. They can help you make your content more accessible to a wider audience and improve its overall quality. When it comes to podcasts, transcription, and translation can be especially useful, as they can help you convert the audio file into a text file that everyone can easily understand. In this blog post, we will discuss the advantages of transcribing and translating your Podcast and the different methods available to you.

Why translation is important?

Did you know that almost a third of the world's population doesn't speak English? That's a lot of potential customers who might need help understanding your content if it's only available in English. Transcribing and translating your Podcast can help you reach a wider audience and boost your business' international presence.

The podcast industry is booming in France, with more than 155 million listenings during March 2022 according to a Médiamétrie study. This exorbitant figure represents even 20% growth over February's numbers which are already high-ranked atypical for this market segment! You can be sure that your audience needs you, but they still have trouble finding them because there are many competitors via audio recordings and translations into different languages too."

Subtitling a podcast

Transcribing your podcast improves your SEO. It actually allows you to rank in the first results of search engines.

Google or Bing, for example, is able to read written content, but it still needs you to show it what you’re talking about. Of course, it is important to optimize the page that hosts your recording. In particular, you must insert :

• The name of your podcast and the name of the episode;
• The date of publication (or broadcast);
• The theme;
• The description of the episode;
• The keywords;
• Etc.

‍

Increase your audience

Some users consume their content orally. Others remain inveterate fans of the written word. You can easily understand that it is not the customer who has to adapt to your format but the other way around! That's why it's better to have your words written if you want to seduce them.
Furthermore, subtitling your audio allows more than 6 million deaf or hard-of-hearing people to be part of your audience. So you should be inclusive and allow everyone to learn about your company.

Improve the user experience

Written transcripts also make it easier to find information on your podcast. Imagine that one of your listeners is listening to you and wants to find a hint in one of your episodes.

Reason: to seduce foreign consumers

The translation of your podcast into other languages will allow you to expand internationally. Your competitors may have already taken this step, but it's still worth investing time in order for people around the world understand what great content is being offered!

Indexed on foreign search engines Google or Bing

‍

Your voice is your brand. To attract Internet users from other countries, you must first be identified by foreign algorithms, and the words in which they're interested matter most for ranking purposes on Google or Bing - so make sure to translate them!
